Our Pledge#

Pigweed AI summary: The contributors and maintainers of a project pledge to create a welcoming and harassment-free environment for all participants, regardless of their age, body size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.

In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.

Our Standards#

Pigweed AI summary: This section outlines the standards for behavior in a community, including using inclusive language, respecting differing viewpoints, accepting constructive criticism, focusing on the community's best interests, and showing empathy. Unacceptable behavior includes sexualized language or imagery, trolling, personal attacks, harassment, and publishing private information without permission. All behavior should be appropriate for a professional setting.

Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment include:

  • Using welcoming and inclusive language

  • Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences

  • Gracefully accepting constructive criticism

  • Focusing on what is best for the community

  • Showing empathy towards other community members

  • The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or advances

  • Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks

  • Public or private harassment

  • Publishing others’ private information, such as a physical or electronic address, without explicit permission

  • Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a professional setting

Our Responsibilities#

Pigweed AI summary: Project maintainers are responsible for setting and enforcing acceptable behavior standards within their projects. They have the authority to remove or reject any contributions that do not align with these standards, and can also ban contributors for inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or harmful behavior.

Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.

Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive, or harmful.

Scope#

Pigweed AI summary: The Code of Conduct applies to both project and public spaces when representing the project or community, such as using official email or social media accounts. It also applies outside of project spaces if behavior may negatively impact the project or community. Project maintainers may further define representation of the project.

This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be further defined and clarified by project maintainers.

This Code of Conduct also applies outside the project spaces when the Project Steward has a reasonable belief that an individual’s behavior may have a negative impact on the project or its community.

Conflict Resolution#

Pigweed AI summary: The Pigweed project values healthy debate and disagreement, but disrespectful behavior or violations of the code of conduct are not acceptable. If someone sees a violation, they should address it directly with those involved. If the matter cannot be resolved or is threatening, it should be reported to the Pigweed Community Managers. Every complaint will be investigated, and the accused will be notified and given an opportunity to discuss it before any action is taken. In potentially harmful situations, action may be taken without notice. The project is

We do not believe that all conflict is bad; healthy debate and disagreement often yield positive results. However, it is never okay to be disrespectful or to engage in behavior that violates the project’s code of conduct.

If you see someone violating the code of conduct, you are encouraged to address the behavior directly with those involved. Many issues can be resolved quickly and easily, and this gives people more control over the outcome of their dispute. If you are unable to resolve the matter for any reason, or if the behavior is threatening or harassing, report it. We are dedicated to providing an environment where participants feel welcome and safe.

Reports should be directed to Pigweed Community Managers at pigweed-community-managers@google.com, the Project Steward(s) for Pigweed. It is the Project Steward’s duty to receive and address reported violations of the code of conduct. They will then work with a committee consisting of representatives from the Open Source Programs Office and the Google Open Source Strategy team. If for any reason you are uncomfortable reaching out the Project Steward, please email opensource@google.com.

We will investigate every complaint, but you may not receive a direct response. We will use our discretion in determining when and how to follow up on reported incidents, which may range from not taking action to permanent expulsion from the project and project-sponsored spaces. We will notify the accused of the report and provide them an opportunity to discuss it before any action is taken. The identity of the reporter will be omitted from the details of the report supplied to the accused. In potentially harmful situations, such as ongoing harassment or threats to anyone’s safety, we may take action without notice.
